Program Goals

Our goals for the future are to continue growing our youth basketball program. We intend to hosting clinics/workouts during the spring and possibly join leagues/tournaments in the summer. Our staff looks forward to building a strong youth basketball program that serves as a positive influence for our participants – on and off the court. We also intend to apply for USA Basketball certificationJr. NBA status and/or become an official AAU team to further increase our presence and legitimize our youth basketball efforts. In addition, Max’s All Stars hopes to become a tax-exempt nonprofit organization under category 501(c)(3). This would provide a tax deduction for donors who make a charitable contribution.
